Frequently Asked Questions

What is the HTTP Referer header?

The HTTP Referer (misspelled in the spec) is a header sent by browsers when clicking links. It tells the destination website which page sent the visitor. Website owners use this to track traffic sources in their analytics.

Does hiding the referrer affect my SEO?

Hiding the referrer on outbound links does not affect your own SEO. Search engines crawl your pages directly and do not use the referrer header for ranking. It only affects analytics on the destination site.

What is the redirect interstitial option?

When enabled, clicks show a branded Anonymiz redirect page with a 3-second countdown before reaching the destination. This confirms to visitors where they are going and still strips the referrer completely.

Will the anonymous link always reach the destination?

Yes — the destination URL is encoded in the link and the redirect always happens. Only the Referer header is removed. The visitor still arrives at the correct page.

Can the destination site still track me?

The destination cannot see your source URL via the Referer header. However, they can still see your IP address and browser fingerprint. For full anonymity, combine this with a VPN.

How long do the generated links last?

Generated links work indefinitely as long as anonymiz.com is online. The URL is encoded in the link itself so there is no database entry to expire.

Is this the same as the Dereferer tool?

Yes — both use the same underlying mechanism. The Dereferer and Hide Referrer Link Generator create identical anonymous redirect links that strip the Referer header.
